Steps

1 hour 30 minutes
  1. 1

    Grate the cassava until you have 4 cups. As a tip, after grating, squeeze it with your hands to remove the liquid. Let the liquid sit so the starch settles at the bottom and a yellowish liquid forms on top. Discard the yellow liquid and return the starch to the grated cassava. This helps prevent the cake from turning bitter.

  2. 2

    In a separate bowl, beat the 5 eggs and add the sugar. Then add the milk and mix until well combined.

    Add the cheeses to the mixture one at a time, mixing after each addition. If you like, add the coconut for extra flavor, as well as the anise seeds.

    Pour the batter into baking pans and bake for 60 minutes at 350°F (180°C), though baking time may vary depending on your oven. This amount fills a 1-pound square pan and a loaf pan. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove from the pan and serve.
